Christmas/Winter Sticks

December 19, 2012 By Meegan Leave a Comment

I just love bringing the outdoors in, don’t you??  That is why I love my Christmas/Winter Sticks.  Everyone who enters our home comments on my Christmas Sticks.  These sticks truly make me smile every time I look at them.

 

I got them last year when the gardener was cutting down a tree right outside our balcony.  I asked him if I could have a few branches.  He looked at me funny, and said, “Well, okay.”  Little did he know what I had envisioned for these bare branches. 

Christmas/Winter Sticks

I just love these branches all year long.  They are right next to me while I write my blog posts.

Thanks Mr. Gardener for my free branches!!  They make me smile everyday!!!

We, 3 Trees…

December 13, 2012 By Meegan 9 Comments

We, 3 trees of Orient are…Ooops!!  Wrong Christmas carol!! I should have said, “Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree!!”  I just have Christmas trees on my mind.  I am loving my trees this year.   They are each similar, yet individual.  They are just right for us.

We, 3 trees...If I had to choose a favorite one-I don’t think I could.  They are all my fave for different reasons.

We, 3 trees...I love this one because of the glitter and the book pages mixed together.  And then there is the book page banner along with the burlap.  LOVE these different textures together!!

We, 3 trees...

AND, she looks fabulous in the guest bathroom!!

Our 2nd tree is in our TV Room.  I like this tree because the dusting of “snow “and the pine cones.

But I especially love the wooden box that she calls home.  Her star makes me smile.

Doesn’t she look happy with my book page garland, the vintage sleds, and the family gallery??  Like she was meant to be there!!

And, our 3rd tree is placed in our bedroom.  One reason is that we don’t have enough room in our living room.  The other reason is that I like the fact when you gaze through our home at first glance, you can spot her sitting on my vanity.

We, 3 trees...I flocked her, and was excited to place her under my chandelier.  I had fun decorating her with white, gold, and blue.  I love icicles and snow flakes, too.

We, 3 trees...The gold ornaments are vintage, as well as the cherubs.  The Nativity was bought a long time ago, when we had been married just a few years.

So, you see.  How could I ever pick a favorite tree??  They are all just the right size and decorated in the right colors for our home.  Hmmm…I am already thinking about next year-is that weird????   We, 3 trees, I mean Oh Christmas tree, oh…..
